Went out yesterday for a lil jaunt. It was a solo mission. First order of business was to air up the tires as they lost 10 plus psi over the winter. I bought this Brutale last June/July timeframe. At that time I still had an RC51 which got the bulk of the seat time. The Brutale was strange and twitchy, quite unnerving, i was not sure i even liked it. Sure its beautiful but the ride was not good....suspension wise. Sold the RC51, so now its Brutale or nothing. Swap out stock handelbars for a lower set off of a Ducati Monster S4R, new Michelin Pilot Powers and see what happens. I still got some suspension adjustments to make but overall, yesterday was wonderful. I think im starting to jive with the bike... Went through an entire tank of fuel, never exceeded 75mph. Good times!
Bring it over, I'll give the springers a push push & a tug tug & a twist twist & a click.
... I mean the bike's suspension
Not that I can do suspension any better than you can, I just wanna get my hands on that filthy bitch![]()

Well Pete, a ride on the Tuono gets a ride on the Brutale. And we've been saying 'get our hands on that filthy bitch' to eachother for a while now....
The T needs some serious love. Gotta get her torn down, tuned up & dialed in. She's all show & no go right now.![]()
